Happy Opening Nights...

Lately I've become quite intrigued by the idea of a blog: growing up as a little girl with a "diary", and presently, a young woman with a slightly similar version I now more maturely dub a "journal" ;o) ..But now, like the hoarder I am, I feel I must get my hands on this Internet journal-ing as well!
Writing has always had a special little home in my heart. I have dabbled in 'The Mechanic's of..' and Poetry classes in college, though I must tell you truthfully, even after all of that skoolin', I'm still not quite sure I have the skill and eloquence one needs in writing a blog for someone to deem worth while. (I blame my self diagnosed ADD for that) Even still, I hope to maybe share with, spread joy to, discuss, and even enlighten some of you readers, in due course. I hope you to be a patient audience, for it might take me a while to find my groove and niche in all of this, but i do hope to, and maybe in the future, provide some written entertainment for you lot!

Now onto another happy first... This past Saturday was Opening night to our lovely little production of "Fiddler On The Roof" playing at the John W. Engeman Theatre in Northport, NY from now until June 20th.

Opening Night/ May Day flowers for the Ladies' dressing room, brought to you by none other than your fellow blogger Le Petit Hibou! (who plays our beautiful "Hodel" and also happened to be my final push into the blogging world, whether she knew it or not ;o))

I'm truly honored to be a part of this production. It's such a special piece of theatre, with a tremendously talented and, beyond that, LOVELY cast. If you're in the Manhattan/Long Island area, and in need of a little culture, music, or just a night out, I recommend coming to see "Fiddler On The Roof".

With that.. I am beyond thrilled at my little contribution to this production: I'm playing the part of Fruma Sarah, and, although nerve-wracking, it is one of my favorite theatre experiences to date! I won't tell you much more, but i WILL leave you with this lovely transformation:

  1. Uh.. I may sit beside you and witness it daily, but the photographic evidence of your transformation is terrifying. And your blog is pretty. Maybe I'll join the club.. for real this time, not in the half-assed "I blog but no one knows it" way I've done maybe... 9 times so far.
